Cozy Bedroom, Weekend Chronicles, & My Gratitude to Bloggers

March 27, 2011

 Bedroom with a wall of drapes doubling as a headboard

Exploring Cozy Bedroom Aesthetics

Nice little cozy bedroom I think. I like the wall of drapes behind the bed acting almost as a headboard of sorts. Because I get absolutely no sleep during the week and just a little more than no sleep on the weekends, I often muse or should I say dream about comfy beds and sleeping!!! Note to self: make time for sleep.

A Fun-Filled Weekend and Social Media Jitters

So far it has been a good weekend. Yesterday I ran around all day and got nothing done…good times. Then I went to my friend CJ’s birthday party last night at Stark Bar. Iwearing the same clothes I was running around all day in. Party was fun. I kept ducking from being photographed though. CJ has a huge Nikon camera that she was allowing all of her friends to use to take photos of the event. I have this great fear of being tagged in photos on Facebook so I spent the whole night dodging and darting out of photos. It was quite ridiculous on my part. Between the hiding and ducking, I did catch up up with some friends I hadn’t seen in awhile…like dearest of friend AZ!

Expressing Gratitude to Jen Ramos: A Valuable Connection

Also wanted to thank Jen Ramos of uber blog Made by Girl for the nice post she did about a COCOCOZY throw. Jen also has a fantastic Made by Girl shop site where she sells fantastic prints, stationery and more. I emailed Jen about 9 months ago asking her who did her website because I needed some help with revamping my blog and building a shop site for me. She emailed me back almost immediately and told me that her “guy” (husband) did it (I point out her kindness in emailing me back because I had inquired to other fellow bloggers for recommendations and was met with a bit of a wall of silence). So I called Jen’s guy (husband) in a desperate panic (after a majorly failed attempt with another web designer) and he easily came to the rescue! Jen’s guy redesigned my blog beautifully and built my lovely COCOCOZY shop site. So as a thank you for her help in making the connection, I sent Jen a thank you present and she in turn put up a nice post just this last Friday (by the way Jen is one powerful blogger…if you could have seen how many more readers came to my site after she said a nice word or two…you would be amazed). Anyway, all of this to say…thank you twice over Jen! Thank you for the help 9 months ago and thank you for the nice thank you post!

Well today is design day for me…starting to think about new designs for the collection. Wish me luck.

Happy Sunday! Hope you have a wonderful day.

    Sounds like you had a great weekend! I thought that was so nice of you to send Jen the throw (which btw is on my wish list). Both of you are so nice and are wonderful bloggers. I hope the rest of your day goes well!

    Stunning bedroom. High contrast but soft with a gorgeous chandelier! I also really love the drapes behind the bed and the patterned rug. Good work!

    I have had the same issue with the whole”hey can I PAY you to help re-vamp my blog” conundrum. I guess no-one wants or needs to work cause I also have been met with quite a few un-returned emails..
    Love your blog!!!Love your new line!!!

    Gorgeous bedroom, but I’m SO curious as to what’s behind the drapes! Storage, creating a faux wall, or just the wall?

    I equate your wall of silence to people not giving out their babysitter’s number. They are afraid either the rates or demand will go up. I give out my sitter’s number.

    Love the pics today, too.

Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tou Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tour of the rental house we had in Edgartown on MV this summer. A new build about 5 minutes from the center of town. 3500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and a pool. House bad that beach house or coastal style decor. We were the first to rent it. What do you think? Would you rent thjs? Do you want to see the bedrooms?
It was our 2nd summer on the Vineyard. Next year, we are renting for the month. Same house. 💃🏾 I would love a bit bigger so more people could come but finding good rentals is hard on the Vineyard. Feel very lucky to have spent a magical few weeks in this spot.

Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Mart Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Martha's Vineyard house. I rented this house for our two week stay in Martha's Vineyard. A few minutes walk to the center of Edgartown. The house was heaven. We were the first renters to stay in this newly built house.
